I'd just like to note that that is not a particularly OO solution. You've essentially created a namespaced function. While this is still preferable to a bare function in a heteroge…

Of course the Hash class in Ruby implements a hash table. What makes you think it doesn't?

what platform? I just fired up a version of FF on Mac OS X with the identical version you are using and everything seems to be working.

sorry to hear about your issues, snogglethorpe. what browser are you using?

hey zoba, are you able to access this URL[0]? [0] http://www.recitethis.com:8901/socket.io/

Just a note about your 'lack of LTE as a feature' argument: I think you would be hard pressed to find many objective observers that would agree with that opinion. I have an iPhone …

I am extremely doubtful that optimized C is going to be equally performant as optimized JavaScript. There is innate overhead when using an interpreted language, no matter how advan…

What was the the big feature of the iPhone 3GS?

Please read this article[0] and educate yourself. The amount of misinformation surrounding the Apple-Xerox relationship is dizzying. edit: this article[1] is a bit briefer, and pro…

I think the routing in that example is meant to be Sinatra-style routing for lightweight applications.

Sure. The founder (Daniel) has been involved in a number of businesses. If you had read his description, even just glanced it at for more than a second, you would have seen a fairl…

Firstly, I'm not sure how much of the pitch deck you actually absorbed. Much of what you said is not "factually" true. Secondly, why would creating a well-designed pitch deck be an…

Canada has the lowest debt to GDP ratio in the G7. We've been in surplus for the greater part of the last decade, and are soon to be back in the black. Broke? I'm not so sure about…

Ok, but in this specific case, the premise of this being an item that is stealing attention away from the more significant cuts in the budget simply isn't consistent with reality. …

This might be a good step, but we still haven't heard a plan from RIM on how they plan to adapt to the changing landscape. A shake up of upper management is good in principle, but …

I'm curious; what data structure and algorithm are you using to achieve O(log n) routing?

Cool. How does it turn the HTML into an actual jpg image?

Really looking forward to traits. We have some hacks using interfaces and __call that we have been using to try and approximate traits, but the real thing is always much better. :)…

I'm inclined to believe this is an error. I have wasted hours trying to figure something out in a textbook, before I decide to check the errors section and discover that it was jus…

Bit confused here -- The author rewrites the initial values as: 1 0 2 0 2 3 He defines the keys array as: 2 3 4 6 Using the method defined in the article to find the values of each…

Do your Sinatra apps have access to the Rails models?

I think largely non-blocking I/O is a means to an end. Non-blocking I/O allows one to implement a single-threaded event loop, which allows one to skip all the overhead associated w…

Yeah, except you lose the morning/night distinction, because they also suggest that the entire world use one timezone. This, in my humble opinion, seems to a very cumbersome and on…
